Hellhound Records

During their run from 1989 to 1996, Hellhound Records, based in
Germany, was the prototypical indie doom label.
Though based in Germany, the majority of their best-known acts
came not from Germany or even Europe, but from the Maryland/DC
area of the US, where a thriving doom scene is alive still today.
From that area, Hellhound signed bands such as
Internal Void,
Revelation,
Unorthodox,
Wretched,
and others, solid doom bands through and through.
Noise
picked up some of their later releases after the label went out
of business.
